Stan wojenny w Polsce i na Dolnym Śląsku: sądy wojskowe

Abstract

The authors discuss the legality of imposing martial law in the light of law provisions being then in force, as well as validity of issued normative acts and legal consequences resulting from them. There is a large number of people sentenced at that time, especially for political offence. The decisions of courts-martial regarding people accused of political offence are illustrated by examples of the practice of judicial decisions ( by inter allia the Silesian Military District Court in Wrocław), and the attitude of the Supreme Court towards those decisions.
